INXS - Melting In The Sun Lyrics






I'm melting in the sun
And this is what they call the life
I suppose to much sun
Makes a desert Arab say

And I really love this country
There's a lot I wanna see

Great expectations
Of all we seem to be

And the winner
And the winner, the winner

Do you wanna make a story up
There's enough it always seems
If it happened in this morning
Tonight we'll see it on T.V

Great expectations
Of all we seem to be

Great expectations (take a look around you)
Of all we seem to be

And the winner
And the winner, the winner

She was twelve and knew the world
Her boyfriend knew a dance to this
Everybody's got advice
Take a snake, take a ladder

And this is what they call the life
I'm melting in the sun

Great expectations
Of all we seem to be

Great expectations (take a look around you)
Of all we seem to be

And the winner
And the winner, the winner

    he really did have an awful Aussie mullet back in the day, the acid wash jeans bulge in your face multiple times is hilarious

    Yeah the 4x jeans bulge in your face is a bit much... once would have been enough!

  4. B.... T....

    Still listening in 2019 one of the best bands in the 🌎.

    B.... T....

    No, not one of. They are THE BEST. 😎

    B.... T....

    @Aus80sRockRadio sorry not true the Beetles was the best dude.

    B.... T....

    @Billy Times Yeah Beatles are excellent, but then there is also Queen who are IMO better than The Beatles... So for me, INXS are my fave band, and Pat Benatar my fave singer.

    B.... T....

    You right i fogot about them but just never was a queen fan and inxs is still my favorite band also still to this day you do know your music bro

  8. n.... 0....

    back in the 80's when knife crime was considered a " novelty " to be included in music vids' , unlike today where it is a nightmarish reality !

  9. M.... H....

    The Swing pound for pound the best INXS album like EVER !!!!

    M.... H....

    Yes have to agree. Thieves is a VERY close second. Sure Kick is their best LP, but not my personal favourite.

  10. M.... S....

    One of my top 3

  11. j.... ....

  14. A.... A....

    that's a crazy ass man tell you

  15. M.... ....

    Hell yes! I have been after this version for soooooooooooo long. I have it on VHS "The Swing And Other Stories"

  16. J.... F....

    That material is from the compilation "The Swing And Other Stories" release in 1985

  17. h.... ....

    YES IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS THANKS SO MUCH :D

  18. m.... ....

    Great versions! I do not knowed about these, thanks for the info, there are also an alternate version of the one thing (with other camera angles), that is the version from the vhs video the swing and other stories, but is inter-cutted with the interviews, you've seen that? There are a video on YT where there are both versions.
    Also exists an alternate video of devil inside, filmed in europe, totally different to the original.

    m.... ....

    Yes there are 2 versions of "The One Thing".  The first version was finally released on the INXS DVD "I'm Only Looking" while the second version with slightly different scenes in it was released on the 1990 VHS video "INXS Greatest Video Hits" as well as on "The Swing and Other Stories" (but ruined with interview inserts).  I have never seen an alternate video of "Devil Inside" - you got me there.

    m.... ....

    stereomusicvideo are you sure the bottom version of the one thing was released on 1990 VHS Greatest Video Hits? I think the 1990 release and the DVD release are the same, the old version from the Swing VHS (and ruined) is the only one I found. Probably the old version was the choice to aired on MTV at the time of the debut, slighty altered beacuse the MTV restrictions at the time.

    m.... ....

    No the VHS and DVD releases of The One Thing are not the same. The VHS release had version 2, where the opening dining table scene is unbroken for 40 seconds. It pans from the candles to Michael Hutchence, with no cuts to Tim Farriss playing the guitar. There's also very different scenes around the 2:08 - 2:36 mark showing the whole band playing, and many scenes are in a different order to version 1. You can see version 1 at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJyKTNdPL5s and version 2 at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaVQg2YmR-8

    Great job, though I appreciate the slow down and the break, anyway, where's the rare vesion 1? thanks, have a great weekend, Javier from Buenos Aires

    Version 1 is not as rare - it was released on the INXS video compilation "Greatest Video Hits 1980-1990" on VHS.  Version 1 is on YT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjQ2EMQ6UB0
